CBG Fall Series 1: 2023 Standouts (Part 5)

The third annual CBG Fall Series kicked off with Session 1 on Sunday at U-Turn, with 24 teams from all over VA and the DMV in attendance and a talent pool of prospects that was second to none. There were plenty of big time matchups, college coaches in attendance and a great atmosphere for preseason basketball.   We take a look at part five of some of the top seniors that were in attendance for session one.

[player_tooltip player_id='1241885' first='Adrian' last='Myers'] | 6'7” F | Massanutten   <figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/09/Myers-Adrian-1-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1663346708.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/09/Myers-Adrian-1-scaled-crop-1920x1261-1663346708.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1589447"/></a></figure>   Myers recently decommitted from Rhode Island and if the way he played this past weekend is any kind of indication he will have a lot of college suitors coming to Woodstock to watch him play. The 6'7” forward can play multiple positions both on the perimeter and in the paint, he has a terrific frame with long arms and good bounce to block shots and get out in transition and get downhill to play above the rim and he can step out where he shoots the ball very well from deep off the catch.   Chris Fields | 6'7” PF | VA Bulls   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Fields-Chris.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/04/Fields-Chris-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1423675"/></a></figure>   Fields was an absolute monster on Sunday showing why he's considered one of the top available prospects in Richmond, and Class 3 Player of the Year could repeat this year if he's as productive as he was at the Fall Series. The 6'7” forward is as versatile a scorer as they come as he's a true three level big man, he can put it on the deck and attack to the rim and get to spots where he can knock down shots over defenders and he shot the ball extremely well from deep too.   Marvin Brimage | 6'3” WG | Tenley Tigers   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/Marvin-Brimage.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/06/Marvin-Brimage-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1482738"/></a></figure>   Brimage is often forgotten on this Tenley team as they have one of the top juniors in the country, but the fact is he can fill it up with the best of them and does so against some very good teams. He is a knock down shooter who moves well off the ball to get open and isn't afraid to let it fly in transition, he's a good secondary ball handler who can create off the bounce and he's a good defender who moves his feet and jumps passing lanes.   [player_tooltip player_id='1482975' first='Fallou' last='Koite'] | 6'6” WF | Mt. Zion   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/09/Koite-Fallou-scaled.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/09/Koite-Fallou-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1589449"/></a></figure>   Koite is the senior leader on this Mt. Zion team and his ability to do a little bit of everything allows him to impact the game in winning ways across the board. At 6'6” he has good length and uses it to get deflections and rebound well for his position, he can knock down shots off the catch and attack closeouts and he's always around the ball and around the basket for easy scoring opportunities.   [player_tooltip player_id='1281425' first='Ibrahim' last='Robinson'] | 6'2” CG | Shabach Academy   Robinson is a dynamic guard who showed his ability to both run the team and score it in bunches and he is a big reason that Shabach will surprised a lot of people this year. At 6'2” he has good positional size and is shifty and quick off the bounce, he can touch the paint at will where he can make good decisions and has the ability to score it over bigger defenders and he brings it on both ends of the floor.   [player_tooltip player_id='1362686' first='Kevon' last='Corley'] | 6'6” WF | Shabach Academy   Corley is one of the most versatile players I saw at the Fall Series, as he's a walking mismatch who can play in multiple different ways and impacts the game in a lot of positive ways. The 6'6” forward can take you in the post or get in the paint off the bounce where he can score it, he scores it well from the midrange and from deep as well and he crashes the glass well for extra opportunities and to keep plays alive.   [player_tooltip player_id='1403922' first='Ralph' last='Martino'] | 6'6” WF | Shabach Academy   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/Martino-Ralph.jpg"><img src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2022/01/Martino-Ralph-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1366914"/></a></figure>   Martino is a transfer from John Champe and the 6'6” wing is extremely intriguing due to his physical and athletic tools and the upside he has moving forward. He's a menace in transition who can both handle it and run the wings and finishes above the rim with authority, he's a good defender and rebounder who uses his length and jumping ability to his advantage and while he's still a little streaky he can step outside and make shots as well.
